Basically, the Model X was introduced, along with some more range variants of the Model S. These additions shifted the Median Range up to the Tesla offerings.

I think the source data (from "Datafiles" link below the chart) is the 2015 and 2016 entries for "Fuel Economy Guide", EV tab, Column 33.

2015 had 36 EV ranges. Median is avg of 87mi (Fiat 500e, MB B-Class) and 93 mi (Kia Soul).

2016 had 62 EV ranges. Median is Tesla Model S AWD - 60D, 218mi.
